Since you're all coming up with such practical solutions, here's what I
would do:

I would set up the webcam on the destination PC, and aim it at the Q40's
display. I would then copy the files in 32 kbyte chunks into the video
memory, and have the camera film them. At that point I would write a quick
and dirty app to scan the video image and extract the bytes from the video
image.

If you cannot do that, just run OCR s/w on the destination machine and COPY
the drive to the Q40's screen as characters.

If that's STILL too complicated, simply put a directory listing of the drive on floppy and present that to the destination machine, put an ethernet card on the Q40, then run the public domain web server, and have the destination
machine request all the files from the Q40 web browser ;)

Too much coffee.

Dave
